Maynilad pilots new AI technology for pipe condition monitoring

by Info @Brand Zone | July 4, 2024

West Zone concessionaire Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad) is now utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to identify areas in its water distribution system with high likelihood of leaks, thus enabling the company to detect pipe leaks more quickly and efficiently.

The AI technology that Maynilad tapped for this purpose is called Infrawise, which is owned and developed by Portugal-based AGS (Administração e Gestão de Sistemas de Salubridade), a wholly owned subsidiary of Marubeni Corporation. Infrawise is an AI decision-making software that analyzes and identifies critical areas in the pipe network where Maynilad should focus its leak detection and pipe replacement activities.

Maynilad began testing the application of this technology in October 2023 over an area covering 1,700 kilometers of water pipelines. After this pilot run, the AI software produced a map that identified vulnerabilities over 750 kilometers of these pipelines, which later resulted in the positive identification of 1,525 leaks.

“Through this advanced AI technology, we can proactively identify and address potential leaks in our water distribution system. This not only enables us to respond more swiftly and efficiently to pipe network issues, it also significantly enhances our ability to conserve water resources and improve service reliability for our customers,” said Maynilad Chief Operations Officer Randolph T. Estrellado.

Following the successful pilot run, Maynilad is expanding the monitoring coverage of Infrawise to another 1,500 kilometers of pipelines.

Aside from monitoring and assessing pipe condition, Maynilad also uses AI technology to detect underground pipe leaks. For this particular initiative, Maynilad tapped the technology of satellite-based infrastructure intelligence company Asterra, particularly its patented algorithms that track the spectral “signature” of potable water underground captured in a satellite image. The leakage information that the AI algorithms pick up are thereafter captured in a Geographic Information System report that specifies street locations, enabling Maynilad to fast-track the process of detecting and repairing underground leaks. 

Integrating AI in Maynilad operations was driven by the need to maintain efficiency and accelerate the reduction of water losses. The company is continuously exploring other advanced technological solutions that have the potential to augment its existing equipment and capability on leak detection.
